The first time i played cookie run it was on a tablet that had low specs, so whenever i played cookie run it would lag and freeze a lot in the middle of the run, but i forced myself to get used to it and deal with it. Then when i bought a new tablet with better specs, the game ran smoother. I noticed that in my old tablet, not only was it laggy but the game was actually running a bit slower. Because it runs slower i actually have more time to do a double jump between tight spots, and i can actually control the cookie better getting all the timing right and avoiding collisions compared to when i use my new tablet. So when i am farming i use the new tablet but when i am going for high score or accomplishing missions i use the old one. It's funny because a lot of the complaints of the people in the google play store about cookie run is that it lags while here i am benefitting from what theyre complaining about! So guys, if you havent yet you might want to try playing cookie run on a slow phone, or if you are playing on a slow phone then share your experience with the game if indeed it has pros rather than just all cons.
That's one smart way to win lol!
Hmm that's one way to say it, but I do get a different experience about lag. It doesn't slow my game down, but sometimes it can occasionally freeze during the run. Even freezing 0.1 second matters to a game that requires timing. This is extremely irritating for me, as some of the freezing happens when I have to double jump quickly as in every last stage of the episode. That would either make me hit obstacles or jump to my death, since during the freezing time, whatever I hit still register as an input, including jumps, instantly when the game is back and moving.
But nevertheless, I've scored 131 million in Primeval Jungle this way, hitting about 8-9 times :p
When it freezes, i gauge based on the cookie,s position whether i should tap right away jump or whether i should wait for the game to start up again a bit before i tap. Yesterday i was ablr to reach stage 7 with soda cookie this way with only one collision.
that might be how lag works for you, but mine slows down to the point where it's skipping frames, not just giving me time to react. Worse, when i try to duck and jump i end up colliding before the jump input actually goes through, and then i end up jumping into another obstacle because it's lagging so bad there's a delay between touching the button and the action!
